Chapter 949 Takigakure Arrives
Chapter 949 Takigakure Arrives
Konoha Village, the home of the Uchiha clan.
Qianyao's family.
Qianyao always keeps a clone of his pupil technique at home just in case.
Shadows are usually hidden in the shadows.
At that moment, the shadow twisted, and the clone stood up from within.
They set off in the middle of the night, and after continuous battles and pursuits, a sandstorm finally broke out.
It's already daylight here.
Qianyao's clone slipped out without alerting his family.
As soon as they appeared at the doorstep, two figures landed.
It was Uchiha Yusuke and his group patrolling nearby.
"It's alright, I'll go to the library to check some information, you guys can continue your patrol."
"Yes." The group quickly dispersed.
Chiyo arrived at the Uchiha library not long after.
Although many years have passed, it is still Uchiha Kotaro and Kojiro who are maintaining this place.
The two happened to be cleaning at that moment.
"Clan Chief." Upon seeing Qian Yao arrive, the two brothers immediately bowed and greeted him.
Qianyao nodded slightly: "Find me the books about the Land of Wind and the Hidden Sand Village."
"Yes."
The two have been working here for over twenty years and know exactly where every book is.
Kotaro quickly found the relevant books.
Qianyao glanced at it and found only ten books.
This number is already quite small, even less than that of the Hidden Mist Village.
"You can continue working."
Chiyo found a seat and began to read. At this moment, Kojiro thoughtfully turned on the light for Chiyo, making the room brighter.
The ten books contain geographical maps and information about the ninja clans that existed before the establishment of the Land of Wind.
And some information about the establishment of the Land of Wind and Sunagakure.
Chiyo possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, so naturally, he can read these documents very quickly.
His original intention was to investigate the abilities of the First Kazekage, Retsuto, and the Second Kazekage, Shamon.
Unfortunately, even in the Uchiha database, there aren't many records.
The First Kazekage, Retsuto, had only one title: Desert Creator, and was skilled in Wind Release.
The Second Kazekage, Shamon, is described as the founder of the puppet system, skilled in puppetry and sand manipulation.
But the details are not available here.
After all, the two of them had very little interaction with Konoha while they were alive.
Qianyao had almost finished reading several books, but there was nothing of value in them.
Until I got the last book, I casually flipped through it.
"Huh... Sensago-ji?"
Qian Yao showed an interested expression.
The book states that the Land of Wind is not a very rich place, but it is by no means a desert.
Until Shukaku arrived, he continuously turned the entire land into sand, causing immense suffering to the people of the Land of Wind.
However, there are still too few ninjas, and no one has yet appeared who can counterbalance Shukaku.
Shukaku continued its rampage for a very long time.
Some monks built a temple in this area.
This temple is called Sensara-ji, and the people here were among the first to learn the chakra refining method.
Their purpose in studying is to protect this land from the encroachment of the Shukaku.
Years later, the monks of Sensaku-ji Temple finally figured out a way to seal Shukaku and successfully sealed him away.
In the time that followed, Shukaku remained under the care of Sensara-ji Temple.
The people of Sensaku-ji Temple are also working hard to study Shukaku, hoping to make use of Shukaku's power.
The original Bunbuk came from this Sensaji Temple.
However, the book doesn't explain how temples would utilize Shukaku.
These materials are not entirely useless, but they are better than nothing.
It seems we should send him and Minato to scout ahead first.
……
The outer city of Konoha Village.
The sounds of vendors hawking their wares rose and fell in the outer city, and merchants came and went, creating a bustling and prosperous atmosphere.
"Fu! Let's go! We have important business to attend to!"
Hua Yan shouted angrily at the girls at the nearby stalls.
Fu held a skewer of candied hawthorns and a skewer of meatballs in one hand, and a box of roasted meat skewers in the other.
He was still chewing something in his mouth.
"Mmm... This is so delicious! This is the kind of life I've always wanted."
"We're here, we've arrived in Konoha, what's the rush?"
Hua Yan and Yang Lang both sighed, unsure of what to say.
Anyway, the journey was uneventful, and they arrived in Konoha without any major incidents. The two of them relaxed.
However, they had already lingered in this outer city for a whole day and could not stay any longer.
"Hurry up! Or I won't bring you out next time!"
The two men also put on stern faces and pulled Fu towards the inner city. Fu was somewhat unwilling, but she still had no choice but to be dragged along.
The three of them soon arrived at the inner city gate to register.
"Takigakure has come to visit the Hokage?"
The gatekeeper, Kotetsu, was somewhat surprised, as Takigakure had produced many Jonin in the past.
However, there haven't been many new faces in recent years.
Although it is nominally a ninja village, it has no real status anymore.
However, the letter from Takigakure Village can still be presented, since it was delivered by the village chief.
Kotetsu didn't know that Minato had left, since information like the Hokage leaving the village to go to the battlefield should be kept secret if possible.
"Please wait a moment, everyone."
Gangzi quickly contacted the Hokage's office via short-distance phone to see if they needed to meet with the three people.
With Minato not around, they made another phone call to the Uchiha clan's territory.
They were lucky; Qianyao's clone had just finished checking the information and was leaving the library when his clansmen came to report.
"Clan leader, the people from Takigakure have come to request an audience with the Fourth Hokage."
"Takigakure Village?"
Chiyo paused for a moment, then thought about it. His impression of Takigakure was that it had a Jinchūriki, and Kakuzu had previously defected from Takigakure.
I don't remember much else.
"I'll go and take them to the Hokage's office."
There's still a sandstorm blowing in the desert, and Qianyao doesn't have anything to do, so he might as well go check it out.
He transformed into a shadow and headed towards the Hokage's office.
……
The main gate of Konoha.
Upon receiving the call, Gangzi Tie addressed the three people waiting there:
"The Hokage has agreed to see you. Just follow them."
As he spoke, three composed members of the Dark Guard swarmed down from the side.
The three members of Takigakure calmed themselves down and followed the Anbu toward the Hokage Building.
After the three entered the inner city, they found it to be much more orderly than the outer city. Although it was still bustling, it didn't feel chaotic.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the streets were divided into sections, with souvenir shops on one side and food shops on the other.
The other street serves the mission hall.
People came and went in a constant stream, posting and accepting tasks.
Seeing this, the three of them all showed envy in their eyes.
After all, their Takigakure Village's mission hall is just a small room, and it's usually empty.
Before long, the group arrived at the Hokage Building.
